American Lovers

The wind is howling on Tuesday night
I say “Hey baby, yes we’ll be alright”
The waves dance with a bitter bite
We hold our breath and face the fight
The floods came and took the shore
Then the fires they took just a little more
All the rich and all the poor
Together now, there is no score
They want us to be, something that’s just a little less free
These hearts don’t crack so easily
Vicious minds make some bleed and others blind
When we’re shoved we still can shine
We’re American lovers
Yes, American lovers
Oh we’re American lovers
That hold on tight in the stormy nights
Kiss your mama and your sister too
And count yourself one of the lucky few
Don’t worry, we’ll make it through
These are our friends and neighbors too
Let’s make it now through this night
This town is dark but we stand bright
Our street has shone its might
We stand together and unite
They want us to be, something that’s just a little less free
These hearts don’t crack so easily
Vicious minds make some bleed and others blind
When we’re shoved we still can shine
We’re American lovers
Yes, American lovers
Oh we’re American lovers
That hold on tight in the stormy nights
Sisters and brothers
Daughters and mothers
They’re American lovers
That fight the fears with love sincere

Roll Into Asheville

Driving down south interstate nights
It’s seventy miles an hour to North Carolina
Heart’s running fast, speeding itself away
Rocks and the hills and mountains and streams
I’m making my way to my lady of dreams
I’m following my heart to the Blue Ridge Parkway
Hey, gonna be there, see my baby today
Hey, gonna be there, see my baby today
On my way, gonna be there, to see my baby today
On my way
Roll into Asheville
Roll into Asheville
Roll into Asheville
Beat up truck, it makes good time
I pass Maggie Valley, see the sign
That says downtown half a mile away
She’s got a smile waiting for me
With kisses, hugs & whiskey
I say "hey pretty girl spend the night with me"
Hey, gonna be there, see my baby today
Hey, gonna be there, see my baby today
On my way, gonna be there, to see my baby today
On my way
Roll into Asheville
Roll into Asheville
Roll into Asheville
Hot date, cool night, this town, is alright
Sweetheart let’s go play, sing and kiss our cares away
Roll into Asheville
Roll into Asheville
Roll into Asheville

Bleeding Money & Whiskey

Making a name for myself way back in 1973
Drinking and smoking and dancing and loving in Louisville, Kentucky
Your ma and I we found our place and we brought you to the scene
Twenty years later I’ve got a new disease, so listen please
I’m bleeding money and whiskey
I’m bleeding money and whiskey
All those drinks and all those nights they’ve caught up with me
I’m bleeding money and my whiskey
Killing myself to do it all with no apologies
Had a night where I lost the fight now I’m fading quickly
Not quite sure if I’ll be in heaven but I know what’s next for me
I’ll go through hell before they ring the bells for me, then I’ll be free
I’m bleeding money and whiskey
I’m bleeding money and whiskey
All those drinks and all those nights they’ve caught up with me
I’m bleeding money and my whiskey

Cry Some Other Day
03:17

In ’85 we felt so alive
There ain’t no wars and there ain’t no one dying
We were the kids with dreams in our eyes
And we'll cry some other day
We longed for the days, we drank up the nights
Tunes in the sky made us kiss, love and fight
No one was sick so we set our sights
And we'll cry some other day
So we walked down the halls standing side by side
Part of the thrill was all in the ride
Words meant as much as the way you tried
And we'll cry some other day
Feared the missiles but we wanted to fly
Secrets were strong, some you kept ‘till you died
Friends were the gang that you’d never deny
And we’d cry some other day
In ’85 we felt so alive
There ain’t no wars and there ain’t no one dying
We were the kids with dreams in our eyes
And we'll cry some other day
So we left our towns that felt too tight
We didn’t know it was the time of our lives
Twenty-five years now feels so right
And we’ll cry some other day
We’ll cry some other day
We’ll cry some other day
Yes, we’ll cry some other day
